How to Repair a Toilet : Wax Ring Maintenance for Toilet

[slopredrider]

I was always told to twist the toilet a little but not to rock it back and forth. WHY WHY.

OMG you didn't even scrub that oval of petrified PEE!!!

Thanks for the vid! I will now replace mine and not wait another 2 months for the friggin slum lord to do it for me!! : )

This helped... Thank you very much for the post!

Seems like there should have been a pair of closet bolts sticking out of the flange before he set the toilet onto the wax ring. Now there's nothing to tighten the toilet down with. Or maybe there are brass nuts in the flange, and he's going to screw a bolt in? It's hard to see for sure. Maybe it's explained in a separate video.

Good video, thanks for posting

I hope you remove the black ring from the floor under the toilet in another video.. ;)

My OCD is acting up..;)

Ideally it's supposed to be 80 degrees fahrenheit in the room so that the wax flows when you crush it. I use a heater and sometime also a heat gun to warm the area much more than the wax ring itself.

I thought it had a lot of logic. Your name is "fatboyz4202000." So you're (not possessive) morbidly obese and you smoke pot, right?

And it was pretty unoriginal to use my same joke (mom's basement). Keep striving "big man." Ha ha ha ha.............

[fatboyz4202000]

Actually, I didn't leave out an apostrophe, my oversized finger hit the 'e' at the same time that I hit the 'r', and there is no apostrophe in your (possessive). Had I said 'you're showing that you're an ignorant teenager that needs to learn a little more before you get to middle school' I would have needed an apostrophe. Have a nice day.

[daveu01]

Do you have an oversized finger because of your morbid obesity from sitting in your mom's basement jacking off to videos of wax ring repair?

And again, congratulations on your (possessive) weak excuse.

[kisABOKOM]

is this shit?

[fatboyz4202000]

if you're looking for instructions on how to fix a toilet on youtube... you might be a redneck.

[contentlocked99]

MIGHT be? lol there shouldnt be any doubt...

[daveu01]

Then you must be a redneck. Congratulations.
